I found this piece to be more substantial for understanding the historical value of the US Constitution than any of the multiple history classes required in college and graduate school.

I am appreciative of the correct grammar used in this piece, which is so lacking in the majority of writings in the 21st Century. Although true that grammar and spell check exists, the misuse of prepositions and the prevalence of dangling participles is forever imbedded in today’s writings, but not in this piece.

Thanks for the article.

Your message certainly stirs the pot, but frankly, there are a few contradictions and oversights in your argument that can't be overlooked.

First off, you're worried about minority opinions getting steamrolled in a majority-rule system. Sure, protecting minority rights is vital, but let's not forget that majority rule is the backbone of democratic systems. It's a tightrope walk, and your critique seems to be teetering on how to balance these two.

Then there's your moral onslaught against certain political and financial systems, tossed around with a mix of legal and historical jargon. Your stance is loud and clear, but how these terms anchor your broader attack isn't quite hitting home. This leaves me scratching my head, trying to piece together how these legal principles fit into your broadside.

And let's talk about lumping together ideologies like National Communism and National Socialism, and then throwing the public education system into the mix. Seriously? These ideologies have distinct histories, so mashing them together, especially when talking about education, is way off the mark. A bit more clarity on how you see these ideologies intersecting wouldn’t hurt.

Also, you're throwing around legal terms like they're confetti, each with its own weight. But their direct tie-in to your critique of the political and financial scenes is fuzzy at best. I'm all ears to understand how these legal concepts mesh with the issues you're hammering.

Lastly, your deep dive into history is impressive, but you're missing a critical step: linking these historical events to the current political and financial chaos you're spotlighting. How do you connect these historical dots to today's mess?

Your points are a conversation starter, no doubt, but I'm keen to drill deeper into your views, especially on how these disparate elements weave together in your narrative.
